by Joseph King in Europa League Predictions
31st-place Maccabi Tel-Aviv plays host to 34th-placed Rigas FS for matchday six of the 2024/25 Europa League. With only three matches remaining in the league phase, both of these teams are in desperate need of the three points to keep their knockout round hopes alive. Which team will we favor in our prediction?
Maccabi Tel-Aviv have accumulated a total of only three points by way of one win and four losses, putting them two points behind a spot in the top 24. They started off the campaign with four consecutive defeats before a 3-1 away win over Besiktas two weeks ago earned them their first points.
The Yellows have drawn their last two straight in the Israeli top flight but come into this contest riding a five match unbeaten run. Their last appearance was a 1-1 stalemate with Hapoel Haifa on Sunday.
Their opponents enter this match as one of only four winless teams remaining in the league phase of the Europa League. With two points earned by way of two draws, RFS are most likely looking at a must-win here if they are to claim one of the knockout round play-off spots.
The defending Latvian champions come into this matchup off the back of a 2-0 home loss to Fenerbahce in their last Europa League appearance.
